inspired by Master Stephen

Yes,
you lead,
with a ring through the nose
tethered to you by leash
imagined or real;
dragged behind on all fours to
who knows where.
Wherever.....
probably not so good.

Strung from the rafters
swaying in a torturous ballet
to your selection of music....
dramatic,
progressive
off key symphonies played by
instruments designed of
human depravity...
instruments that wail from
the depths of the soul.

Yes Master,
you lead...
every sorrowful
every agonizing step of
the way.
